If you don't go through a proxy, he totally could if he chose to collect that information. It may not be totally accurate, but for most people he can probably tell what region you're in, what operating system you're on/device you're most likely using, the browser you're using, and the name of the network you're coming through - for instance, some larger companies and institutions have named networks, so if you go to school at U. Miami, and post from there while connected to their wi-fi, he can probably see that there was a connection made from the miami.edu network.

He may choose to not collect that information, or if he's collecting it, he may not be looking to associate those stats with you personally and your account, idk. But if you use a straight up regular connection, I'm pretty sure he can often see that info if he wants to. You can avoid sharing it by using the tor browser or going through a proxy service, which runs you through a different IP, usually in a different country.

I personally have accepted that Splinty @Splinty can pretty much guess where I work and live and I don't really mind because I am naive and believe he's a decent guy with a life and is probably is too busy to care to look anyway.

I have administered websites before and have seen a few different usage stats programs, and I have been able to see this info about users.
Yep
Basically, I trust Splinty
If he is a CIA agent then he has all my info, but CIA probably has all my/our info anyways.

Thanks for the kind words. beyond the fact that I'm not a very vindictive person, I just don't care. Lol. I'm too busy and have far more to lose in such a venture. For those that don't trust my words, there's a simple math that I'm a very public and trusted member of my community, the military, and more. So you don't have to worry unless I start posting about my bad debts and being down to my luck. The day I have nothing to lose you, you better watch out @Lars. I'm coming for you.

I’m not really concerned about anyone finding me, in the grand scheme of things... my place of employment is quite obvious, anyone can get me that way.
I’m more interested in the actual “behind the scenes” of this stuff. Like, do IPs and whatnot show on the posts, do photos get posted with geotagged locations, etc.

Your a goddamn celebrity though...An MMA forum God IMO
If I doxx you(not my style) it will be to buy you a beer and meal and check out the museum.

Anybody who actually comes and finds me in person would have to be a sick person to not smile, shake hands, and enjoy my company/hospitality.
Everything that’s happened from posting has been positive.

Anyone I meet or anything I receive now is just a bonus
Because
truth be told my lifelong dream has been accomplished.

IP addresses for each post can be seen.

We're using third-party hosting for image embeds. Random cloud storage space. to conserve size that upload process both shrinks the photo which does degrade some quality but also strips the geotag in the process. This was not intended originally, but with a nice feature accidentally because I would prefer people to post from their cell phones and not have to worry about that kind of thing being embedded.

Thanks for the kind words. beyond the fact that I'm not a very vindictive person, I just don't care. Lol. I'm too busy and have far more to lose in such a venture. For those that don't trust my words, there's a simple math that I'm a very public and trusted member of my community, the military, and more.

Yep
you seem like a genuine person who is not gonna take anything past pixels on a screen...even if you agree to disagree
that is my take and part of the reason I choose to post here...plus I was Wilding out with Wild for years before this place started
